Blackhawk Enhanced Military Web Belt Tactical Reviews, Deals, Problems and Guides

I SCREWED UP AND BOUGHT THIS"WEB" BELT, somehow thinking it was a Pants Belt... I must have been shopping instead of sleeping when I should have been sleeping. I left my review with 5 stars because for a "Web Belt" this thing is huge and awesome... It will unfortunately hang in my closet until I find a good use for it LOL. If you are looking for a Web Belt, this one is HEAVY DUTY and I think it might be bullet proof... Not literally but so thick that I can't imagine anything penetrating it!!! I wore one of these in the military back in the 90s and they didn't make them like this one... Amazing High Quality VERY Heavy Duty and NOT FOR PANTS LOL!!!

Firstly, I love the extra amount of belt that Blackhawk affords you; although it says it fits up to a 47 inch waist, I was able let the belt all the way to 54 inches before the integrity would be compromised and I didnt even need all of that. I ended up wasting $14 purchasing the extended belt. So for all you big guys, unless your waist is over 54 in (with your pants on) this belt should suit you fine. Secondly, although the belt is incredibly firm or rigid, I love the ease in which you can adjust the size down to the precison of a milimeter. The buckle is plastic so I cannot say I'm crazy about that aspect. Why? The exact same buckle is on my work rig and after 1yr of taking it on and off one of the clasps began to weaken and was no longer locking in place, it was about to break off. I ended replacing the whole buckle. I worry about how this buckle will hold up in sub-zero temps, you come under fire and dive to the ground, land on a rock and the buckle shatters. I would've preferred an aluminum one by Blackhawk. But all in all this belt seems so robust you could hoist and engine block with it. Oh yeah, and the olive drab color matches the rest of my assault gear well enough - superb.

I haven't had the chance to wear this very much, but I have worn it around the house for a while with my Safariland thigh holster and my Glock 17. It stays put, it's solid and well built, and the buckle seems to be quite strong. The only thing I would be concerned about is how well the plastic buckle will hold up over time. It is just what I was looking for and it's design will allow me to replace the buckle if it ever breaks. Excellent product for the price!

I purchased this belt to use as a holster belt. I should have paid more attention to the reviews I read before I ordered it. It is really a nice belt however it is so stiff it's difficult to bend when you take it up. It's stiffer than the army web belt, it can stand up end to end if you hold it. Only time will tell if it softens up with a lot of use. I think the weave is to tight.

I wish it came in a 2x so if I'm wearing heavy clothing I would have more adjustment .
Other than that it fits fine and very stiff and the buckle with its safety button insures it wont pop loose like some plastic buckles. Also you wont be able to utilize the inner guide straps on some battle belts without removing buckles first.

I bought this belt expecting mediocre nylon quality, a sub-par buckle, and some retarded way of adjusting the size. I thought wrong, i got the usual Blackhawk quality product thats to be expected from the best. The buckle has double locks on it to prevent accidental unlocking. The belt has kept it's rigidity under some bad conditions, no sign of becoming flimsy. Fits all black hawk products on perfectly except thier CQC magazine holders, they don't lock on, but i've yet to have a problem with losing them even when chasing a suspect through the woods. I highly recommend this product, and for the price i couldnt believe what i got.

The belt is sturdy and very ridgid which is both a pro and con. It's a pro for obvious reasons, but surprisingly the belt is so stiff that it doesn't form to your body at all. It is also very difficult to re-size the belt due to the stiffness of the material. On the positive side, this belt is very rugged!

Seems to be very high quality and very strong. The issue I had was that it is too wide for my tactical pants belt loops. Had I read the description, I would have seen that it is 2.25" wide instead of the 1.75" that I needed. My own fault for getting too excited and not reading thuroughly.

I was absolutely stunned at the quality of this belt. It far surpassed my expectations and will do what I need it to do no question. The magazine pouches I purchased with ammo loaded -- no problem. Knife, .45, med kit -- no problem. Buy this belt along with great customer service.

If you read the description of this this product you could assume that it would or could be used as a belt but it was so wide it would not fit any of my belt loops.
Materials looked good and the connection design good but not a belt for holding up your pants!
